What I'm Playing
Added 2023-03-28 03:53:25 +0000 UTCGreetings, one and all!
I've been hard at work on the latest build for Sanctuary in Time, but in spare moments I've also been checking out the console release for Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem.
I'm a big fan of action-RPGs, but mostly play them on the console side, so I don't always get to try out the latest and greatest. That's why even though Wolcen came out on PC about 3 years ago, I'm just now getting to check it out. And I gotta say, so far, I'm impressed.
This game is good. Really good. Now, don't get me wrong, the console launch definitely has its rough spots I'd like to see ironed out. There are graphical glitches, and quite a few bugs, as well as interface issues that I'd love to see addressed. But, despite all that, I am having an absolute blast with the game.
I've played a ton of Diablo 3 on Xbox (read as: hundreds of hours), and what I've played of Wolcen so far (level 19-ish) feels pretty darn close in fun factor. I'm also enjoying how open the class and skill systems are, and the cosmetic customizations available for the hero are pretty cool as well.
Loot feels solid, art style is beautiful, level & creature designs are really good, and combat is downright compelling. The story is also pretty darn good as well.
So, have you guys tried out Wolcen, either on console or PC? And if so, what have been your experiences? And also, if you've made it to the end game (which I have yet to do), does it hold up and keep the game entertaining over the long haul?
Let me know in the comments below. And...
Above all else, have fun!
